Pretty much.
From the sound of it you dont want the stock cooler anyway.

I got a Corsair 650D so I think I might have some problem without modding? Or will I be fine?

It looks like you can fit 2 240mm radiators in that case without too much trouble, though i am not personally familiar with the case. If you just want to cool the graphics cards, you could probably get away with no modding.

Your title asks about it being "worth it" which is extremely subjective. If you are simply interested in getting your cards to perform in crossfire with decent temps, you can always get aftermarket air coolers for your cards, which will be a much simpler solution.

I have two XFX 290s and two EK water blocks, this is the way to go right now.
